The Chicks - Long Time Gone текст песни

Текст песни Long Time Gone - The Chicks



Daddy sits on the front porch swingin'
Looking out on a vacant field
Used to be filled with Burley tobacco
Now he knows it never will
My brother found work in Indiana
Sister's a nurse at the old folks home
Mama's still cooking too much for supper
And me, I been a long time gone
Been a long time gone
No, I ain't hoed a row since I don't know when
Long time gone
And it ain't comin' back again
Delia plays that old church piano
Sittin' out on her daddy's farm
She always thought that we'd be together
Lord, I never meant to do her harm
Said she could hear me singing in the choir
Me, I heard another song
I caught wind and hit the road runnin'
And, Lord, I been a long time gone
Been a long time gone
Lord, I ain't had a prayer since I don't know when
Long time gone
And it ain't comin' back again
Now me, I went to Nashville, trying to be the big deal
Playing down on Broadway, getting there the hard way
Living from a tip jar, sleeping in my car
Hocking my guitar, yeah, I'm gonna be a star
Now me and Deliah, singing every Sunday
Watching the children and the garden grow
Listen to the radio to hear what's cooking
But the music ain't got no soul
Now they sound tired, but they don't sound Haggard
They got money, but they don't have Cash
They got Junior, but they don't have Hank
I think, I think, I think
The rest is a long time gone
No, I ain't hit the roof since I don't know when
Long time gone
And it ain't coming back
I said a long time gone
No, I ain't honked a horn since I don't know when
Long time gone
And it ain't coming back again
I said a long time, long time, long time gone
Whoa, it's been a long time
Long time, long time, long time gone
Oh, it's been a long time gone
Long time, long time, long time gone, yeah
